How do you replace the timing belt of the Opel Vivaro?

Model: Vauxhall Vivaro Vivaro C, MK 3 - Years 2019-2026
Part: Timing belt

In order to replace the timing belt of the Opel Vivaro, you need to lift the front right wheel, which must be removed from its seat in order to access the inside of the wheel arch: the lining can then be completely detached to access the belt inside. This can now be freed by loosening the pulley screws and reducing the tension: the new belt can now be inserted and repositioned. The tensioner pulley can then be inserted to bring it back to tension and check that everything is working properly.
